Chilean Soccer and more

This week we have celebrated a birthday, continued with classes and afternoon activities, played and of course watched the Chile vs. Portugal game today. We had the opportunity to visit a Chilean school to watch the game and students were able to interact with children and teens. They were also able to join in the fun and experience the culture of watching soccer.

Bienvenida en Viña (the welcome)

We arrived to the location where students will be taking their classes and doing their afternoon activities. The families were waiting and were very excited to meet their kids. Each student was introduced to their family followed by performances and introductions. It was a great way to dive right in and get a glimpse at Chilean culture.

Last week

During our last week, we had the going away party and show. Students read poems, danced, sang, acted and enjoyed time with family and friends. What a great way to finish these amazing 6 weeks.

5th week

It was a good week. The week started with classes and our usual afternoon activities. On Thursday we went to Valparaiso to paint a mural and we finished the week with a trip to Isla Negra and Pomaire.
